I have started the 12 mile days now, I'm not very excited about that, but I must remain true to the schedule laid out before me.  A good slow run anyway.  12 miles felt like 11.  Monday thru Thursday are now 12 mile days with Fridays being 10 mile days.  Saturday's are going to be my long runs.  I'm scheduled to do 72 miles this week.  The most miles I've ever ran in a  week is 72, so well see how this goes. 

I'll be out of town all week, so I won't update the blog for awhile.

12 miles today.  Participated in an annual fitness test with my department today as well.  It almost felt like a race.

12 miles in Page, AZ today.  It's always a challenge to train away from home for me, but I did it.

14 miles at home today.  My first semi long run of the season.  My body felt pretty tired today.  I really felt the weeks miles on my legs and hips.  All in all a very successful week of training.  I'm pleased to say that this weeks miles ties my record of most miles ran in one week!!  I can't wait to break that record.   

I'll be in Page, AZ all next week as well.  I don't plan on blogging for about a week.
